Drag 1990’s London
Penny on her back, fibreglass and resin painted in oils. Glass heart shaped cut table top… slightly larger than life sculpture of Penny/Robert my transvestite friend & mews who introduced me to a side of London that features in many early sketches & reliefs of London Drag Queens. I took a show up to the Edinburgh festival in 1988 accompanied by an entourage of Drag queens who featured in the show. I became a catalyst for a rather nightmare scenario part of which which was filmed on BBC documentary “The Lanes” (see video). The above table is the reverse of the Allen Jones table of a woman on all fours in thigh high leather boots.
